Donald Trump bars New York Times, CNN, Los Angeles Times and Politico from White House press briefing
Several major American news organisations were on Friday afternoon barred from a White House press briefing in a an unprecedented move by the Trump administration.
All so consistent. When you are a despot you want to make sure that news information is contrloled which includes portraying the media as the enemy and the problem. Next stage is to exclude the ones who are more of an problem and split any semblance of group protection.
This latest action was predictable. How does the US deal with its President now?
How can anyone overseas treat him with anything but caution and contempt rather than acquiescence and promotion?
